- In this episode we revisit last summer and why I filmed on my old camcorder instead of my professional cameras!

Dude this looks soo good. The camcorder gives it such a cool nostalgic feeling. It looks like a memory.
That’s what I love about the camcorder 💙
it s in the past of course it is a memory...
@@AndrewAhi TBH if you said that the footage was from 2005 I would've believed you 😅
@@AndrewAhi we got the same camera! I'mma try this, you inspired me!
Instant goosebumps in the first 15 seconds
you perfectly described the reason why I wanted to buy a camcorder. So many people have tried to reason with me saying it's the same as an iphone or a camera but just lower quality and I can't seem to put my feelings into words when I decided to have a camcorder. It was really the feels of making a core memory, living in the moment and just having fun without worrying about the technical stuff :)
camcorder is and will never be like the iPhone. keep doing you
what a bshit, camcorder is a crap, that is 100% true.
go buy used ultrazoom point-and-shoot, use a 30fps codec, auto mode, this is a proper stuff to deal with.
It will be as good as iphone 4-5, but with stab like 12 pro max
I felt this !
This reminds me of how cool it is to have friends and do fun stuff during the summer
Stay strong bro!!! And leave your comfort zone (join a sports club e.g.), soon you will make nice contacts and friends. 🙂
what they said. get out there leave your comfort zone now. Life wont be easy and it never will be get comfortable being uncomfortable
this summer didny really have a chance to hang with friends but being alone has such a. soothing feeling to it
:(
Hey, we all want the sane thing: fun times with friends. We'll get them! Just be in the moment and leave your comfort zone
I've had a camcorder for many years, they're really perfect for capturing that early 2000's vibe and they're still in abundance so you can find a lot of them for cheap.
thrift stores are a great place to look!
The difference reaction to recording devices is a spot on! I think if people got a retro camera pointing at them, they'd knew it for AESTHETIC.
all about the vibe of the camera
THIS IS THE VIBE I WANT FOR MY FUTURE VIDEOS!
do it!
Man the vibes created by using an old point and shoot or camcorder are really something else. It's something that can't be mimicked by modern phone cameras or even dslrs
Nope! goes for film as well! check out the recent where I shot a bunch of film this past year and it has such a different feeling than digital
Cool video!! And yes, I agreed with you. This camera is about capturing the moment right in front of you. And the vibes from the footage feels so nostalgic so it makes like a precious memory. I will get that one soon for my next project. Thank you for sharing this.
thanks for the comment! Did you get one?
This video perfectly testifies that if it's a fun life, then it's fun content (regardless of the camera). I love the ending footage!
Its never about the gear!
You make me miss something I wasn't a part of, created a core memory and it looks amazing!
Wow thank you so much!
This video came at the perfect right time for me! I want to film my travels next summer but I just don't know how to film in social situations without it being awkward or taking away from the moment. I don't want to spend a lot on a tiny action cameras or change my personality to fit the vlogger stereotype. An older camera model is the way to go! Some people may hate the low quality but it actually adds something special to the shots. Amazing content, thanks for sharing! 📸
yesss, I always film everything in my life 'cause I'm a very nostalgic person, and I usually do it with my phone since I always have it with me. I love the quality of the videos I took with it because it really makes the colours pop, and the video os more stable. But two years ago I also bought a camcorder, and it was the best decision !! I use it for special occasions, like trips, and I feel like it creates a more secure atmosphere for my friends when I'm filming them ! People are more comfortable and themselves, which really is what I'm trying to capture !
love the vibes the old cam gives (also great music taste)
thank you, glad people are liking the music as i was unsure of that during the creation of this project haha
This is my favorite CZcams vid of yours so far
Thank you Charlie 💙🙏
Awesome video! It is nice to just strip back the thoughts about gear and just shoot on such a simple device in personal settings. This was greatly put together, and the perfect length!
Thank you!
Lol I feel so nostalgic watching your summer montage even though I know none of you guys 😂 it’s amazing how this camcorder can make the moments looks so pure, fun and nostalgic. I should get one 😅
You have to get one! just imagine the feeling when its your footage and friends you see on your camcorder!
bro thanks so much for the recommendation!🙏🏽 just bought the camera and im planning on using this for my bday week since im going to a concert and cruise!
thank you!
this was really fun to watch! thanks for sharing it 🫶🏼
this is so inspiring! now i want to do the same next summer! thank you for this video!!
Go for it!
Tysm, I was looking for a cam recorder recommendations for so I can record my vocation, this was so cool to watch
Glad I could help!
you doing this with a camcorder is the exact reason i got into analog photography.
With your phone or a high-quality camera, you capture a copy of whats in front of you 8K resolution 120fps whatever.
With an analog camera, you capture the moment you are in and burn it on a physical medium.
Its just a different level of preserving memories.
It really is!
This is exactly my idea of documenting my life and this video gave me a great amount of inspiration 💕
man, reminds me of my own camcorder, a canon vixa hf r62. they even still sell a similar model today, the r800. the video is soft and lacking dynamic range, but the zoom is insane and its just plain fun.
way too much fun!
Love your edits!
Hey Andrew! loved this video, super inspiring. What camera was it ?
Gave me goosebumps. Well told story, sir.
thank you so much!
Dude Yesss!!! I am tired of trying to get the perfect shot with all my camera gear. This makes it more unique.
Going to Amsterdam next month with my cousins, so I will definitely think about getting a cam corder for it!
thank you so much!
Do you think nostalgia is the only reason why people are less afraid of camcorders or film photos? I personally have switched to film photography instead of iphone and I've had friends ask "Why" take a photo of them, but when I do they all pose and have a great time! I just wonder if its purely nostalgia or the negative associations we have with tech now.
i think its both. but I do believe there is negative associations with tech. If you take a photo on iphone people are instantly wanting to see and check if they look fine, plus add the social media into the mix. with film its simple and you cant see the photo. you gotta wait.
amazing, crying its so well edited
wow thank you!
yaaaaaa dude this made me so nostalgic for summer vibes!!!
Glad you like it! hope you have a sick summer
Love the vibes! Great idea 👍
yew thanks!
Great video, immaculate vibes in your video at the end. You've inspired me to get a camcorder :)
did you get one? how have you liked it I want to know!
So so beautiful!! This is the exact msg I needed
so glad you found the video!
This is so incredibly beautiful
love this experiment man!!!
doing it again this summer!
the camcorder effect is absolutely real and ive never been able to put it into words before!!! ive been carrying a camcorder around for months after a trip to iceland and i made so many friends! everyone loves the camcorder and i think the novelty and childhood nostalgia is what makes people so excited to be on it and i think reactions like that instead of embarrassment or shying away are so much better for video anyways. if you had the best quality everything but youu could on;y take videos that people look uncomfortable in then theyre not very good pictures, but you could be filming with the worst quality camera but if its all people waving and smiling and saying hi then i think thats the best quality you can find!! plus theres a lot of good ones that have really good audio and video quality that can be a lt cheaper than other cameras of similar quality, plus camcorder bags are small and dont take much to carry and theres still space for everyday things so you only have to carry around 1 bag and you dont have to give up possible protection for the camera! i love camcorders i am so passionate about the camcorder effect they are so amazing and wonderful
i alwaysss love camcorder recordings they’re so nostalgic and beautiful. This was so cute🥺
best vibes ever
Yes bro I'm doing the same thing. I use a jvc gr compact camera and I plan on buying this kind of camera for the same vibes. Keep up the good work 💪🤝
do it! thank you so much
Yo I totally just bought it! Stoked to add it to my bag! Thanks for the inspo!
where did u buy it from? send me a link please
Did you get the one from the amazon link and if so can you recommend it?
where did u get it from? whats the name?
After 2 months what’s it like honestly?
@@CrazyW. the one in the description is just like mine that i recently bought and i would say it's not really worth it, i recommend to search another Camcorder wich is at least a little bit more expensive than this one.
Edit: if you want one search for a JVC Camcorder
this video brought me so much joy. i think im going to ask for one for my birthday. i have a one hour screen time limit and i think this actually might change my life. thanks for the video
Happy birthday and the less screen time the better trust me! you will remember the times you go do something as opposed to the tik tok videos you just binge watched haha
smiled through the whole vid
Thank you💙
Okay extremely relatable i have been capturing the whole 2024 on cam coder and like giving updates everyday its so fun so far
beautiful mate gonna do it this summer 👏👏
YES! Tag me i want to see the video!
Crushed it man, such good vibes
Thank you🙏
Think about it: 20 years ago, no mirrorless cameras, DSLR's were even new for the market and they were not shooting any kind of video, drone were just cyberpunk future for us. And in those days we only had our camcorder. Both for fun, memories and shooting short movies etc.
I am glad you had our nostalgic experience and spread this on internet!
Thank you!
love your perspective it made me cry lol!!!!!
glad you liked it!
i love this typa videos so so much!!! wish i could get one for summer! also, loved the behind soundtrack, what were the songs used?
Why dont you? and the song is called Hunk Beach
somehow youtube recommended me this at the perfect time!! this is gonna be me and my twin's last summer before college so we have a bunch of adventures planned, and i want to use our old red camcorder to record them all, starting just next tuesday actually! i'm looking forward to my own camcorder summer even more now
what adventures are you going on?
bro the sony camcorder that your parents used was my first camcorder too! sooo sick. I still use a handycam for some footage just for the feels
I love it!
Worth the wait 10/10
Thank you Mia!
I had a box of stuff at my mates I forgot about and he said there is a cam corder in there! When I go back to my home town Im so excited to pick it up and film on it again! Thanks for the inspiration
its so fun!
This is the best looking camcorder footage I’ve ever seen
thank you!
I love this dumb type of reminisce lifestyle. I live for it
same
I feel nostalgia with that stuff, I passed my whole childhood doing that and I still 🥹🥹❤
time is a funny thing. it speeds up each year. its fun looking back and feeling nostalgic but dont forget to live in the present!
Love this sm bro!
thanks Tanner!
loved this so much
thank you so much!
Your summer looks much more enjoyable then what I see on TikTok where Influencers try to tell me how good their summer was with their iPhones...good job!
carlsbad village is a total vibe !
I plan on doing something similar with a camcorder I bought after watching some of the old videos I used to make! How much storage did you end up using for all of the memories?
not much. I don't remember but I think I have a 32gb card and that's more than enough when you are working with bad footage lol
I did a similar thing with an old Sony handicam for one day last summer, it's my favourite video I've ever made 😇
Would love to see an edit of yours with no preamble just music and video ❤️
Its in the works!
@@AndrewAhi Awesome
Inspiring. Reminds me of all the camcorder footage I need to edit from the 90’s 🤩
You should!
I have an old Canon Powershot A540 digital camera from 2006 and it get almost the sound and video quality. gonna take it with me to document my summer and first ever festival experience as well as my first time traveling to another country in 5 or 6 years
dude thats gonna be awesome!
What a vibe🔥🔥
Thank you!
I bought in 2009 and now I thought to use it and came to your video
Thanks
awesome! have you bee using it?
cool! im getting my camcorder next week so hopefully i'll like the quality as well
did you get one?
This is exactly why a recently bought a camera with wifi for the summer, that way I can easily acces the vids on my phone. Hope that my vacations and summer will look like this😜
that is the best of both worlds
Camcoders are the best for video. I don't why corporate companies don't make a big sensor camcoder, all the capability of the Sony FX30 in a small camoder like the AX700 and a removable lens. It would be the perfect camera for many many people!
that would be sick!
Loooveeee this!!!
Thank you!
I use a panasonic camcorder for wildlife photography since it's all I have. It's impressive what photos I can squeeze out of it sometimes
use the gear you got!
very cool! you have inspired me!
did you get one!?
This kid in my track team bring his big camcorder everywhere and the difference in reactions to how ppl want to be in front of the vs a regular camera is crazy I think it’s bc ppl know the camcorder is just for fun
Such a sick look
so fun to make them!
I love your channel !
more to come. thank you so much
This is an amazing idea
you gonna do it?
Buying this summer!
lets go! hope you have a great summer
More of this pls!
hope you are liking the new work + got camcoder videos coming verrry soon
Bro, this was a very good video!
thank you!
this video made me buy one... ill record my summer with this , thank you.
summer is coming up you still gonna do it this summer?!
@@AndrewAhi already bought one! I'm ready haha thanks for the inspiration!
I LOVE social media don’t get me wrong but I just love the nostalgia feeling of cameras and cam corders
cant beat it!
That was so sick bro
Thank you!
I love this. Stay true bro🤙
all ways true over here glad you loved it
Imagine just looking over your fence and seeing your neighbour hit the gras with a shovel
Congrats to ya" i use my camcorder for music videos..the 4K seems to hold up pretty well & never out dated. Simplicity is The Key!
It really is!
Can you show what you did with the settings if you did anything?
This video made me cry. Its so sweet and alive
this comment made me smile!
That's awesome.
Thank you!
this is fire bro, going to grab my camcorder now
heck yeah hope you capture some awesome summer content!
"The Walters" hit the vibe perfectly
this should soooooo be a trend yo!
yes please
I wanted to ask what song you use for the end? I really like it.
What was the exact model of your camcorder? I'm thinking about only bringing an old camcorder like yours along with a film camera when I go back to Australia to capture some of the memories I'll be making along the way! Really enjoyed the look yours gave, did you do any editing after filming or is this straight out of the box?
i just cut the footage no color or anything else done to the footage! the model is JVC GZ-R10BU
Great stuff man! do you have the link of that specific camcorder?
i think its jcv quad proof, not sure which version though
@@mahraloki3854 is it the same one that u left the link for in the description
@@luciopaterno2850 not my video sorry but no it isn't the same camera thats linked. I would send u a link to the specific one he used but im not sure which version it is, the most i could tell is its a jvc quad proof
It is a JVC Everio Quadproof
The exact model is GZ-R15, from 2014 ;)
I sadly do not have the link as I think they do not make it anymore
i just had this same idea earlier today, what timing
they knowwww
doing it this summer!! just found my old digital camera
Lets go! tag me so I can see what you create!
Camera tech peaked in the 2000s for insane vibes
Great vid❤
Thanks 😁
Great Video! what editing software did you use?
Davinici!
You made a good point
thank you!
I recently bought a camcorder and have been taking some awesome pictures and videos of my family. So excited to do more!❤
how has it been going!
@@AndrewAhi it’s been really great! Was able to take some videos in Austria!
